rental purposes, good cottages
bungalows modernJy'eqini P'<1 which
would satisfy the demands of tbs bet-
ter class of tenants. There are many
traveling men who would like to live
hare, many employees of local bUftl-
nees houses and industrial plants, who
owiug to the fact that they are em-
ployees with the- possibility that they
may losetheir Job or be transferred
to another city, can hardly afford to
buy their own homes They would like
to have a nice lease but have been
unable to get them here. The demand
has been much more than could be
filled in the past and is growing all
the time. It Is becoming a serious
handicap to the city's growth. The
Mayor hi putting his money into
buildings, therefore, is privileged to
suggest such a - campaign. The
American may not be able to influ-
ence the sentiment much one way or
the other hut we will be found con-
sistently ufging the building of homes
and will not <ifiit when the 100 is
reached but will keep on everlastingly.
